Outdoor play is central.

Outdoor play is central to our philosophy, offering children unparalleled opportunities to explore, question, and connect with the natural world. These experiences spark creativity, fuel curiosity, and deepen their connection to nature, enriching every step of their educational journey.

Supporting Children’s Growth and Development

At Origins, our commitment is to create an enriching, joyful, and supportive environment where every child can flourish.

Daily Activities

Our programming evolves from children’s interests, with invitations to play, thoughtful provocations, and carefully selected materials provided in both indoor and outdoor settings.

Open-Ended Play

We prioritize open-ended play, which has no predetermined goals or limits. This type of play fosters creativity, problem-solving, and strategic thinking. Using loose parts and authentic materials, we empower children to explore, build, and create in their own unique ways.

Nature Play

Daily outdoor time immerses children in the beauty and wonder of nature. Activities like digging, planting, jumping, and exploring our locations enhance physical development and nurture a deep connection with the environment.

Messy Play

Messy play engages all the senses, offering children opportunities to explore materials like mud, water, sand, paint, snow, and clay. These experiences boost self-expression, confidence, investigative skills, and fine and gross motor development, all while making learning fun and meaningful.

Gross Motor Play

From running and skipping to digging and climbing, gross motor activities are part of our daily routine. Whether indoors or outdoors, children develop strength, coordination, and confidence through active play.
